Comment:
He is the real deal professor one of my favorite professors I have had. He tells you how it is from day one, honest, his class is not easy you have to put effort in to get your grade. I did not enjoy the other students in my class never really enjoyed majority of other students in my classes. He did get soft on cell phones which is ECCs downfall.

Took this class online and receieved a B. He gives you 9 test and those are all your grades. DO NOT WAIT UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE TO DO ALL 9 TESTS, OR YOU WILL FAIL. His tests were super easy, as long as you read the chapter, and use the study guide he provides.

Comment:
Brandel swears a lot AND he's proud of it, his class is a little redundant and he does throw in at least one trick question a test, but he's extremely organized and he's not kidding when he says he knows what the hell he's talking about. One of my favorite profs :)

I took the class in the summer and got an A. Easy A if you read the chapters and take the online practice quizzes. If you are not willing to take the time to read the chapters, it will be difficult to get an A in the class. Dont wait til the last minute to do the tests or you will set yourself up for failure.

I took this class online in summer of 2010. He post the assignments on the first day of class. Just read the chapters and do the online quizzes and you will pass all the multiple choice timed tests. I received an easy A. Don't wait until the last minute to read all the chapters, that will make this easy class hard. I'm taking another class by him.

He's a really great teacher-I actually learned a lot from him. He's a funny guy who swears a lot. I reccommend using the online material and going to class, you'll do a lot better on the test. I'd definitely take him again!

Comment:
Prof. was nice & understanding. Had a good sense of humor & cursed alot. Do not have side convos while hes teaching or walk in late, gets alittle upset. To PASS you MUST read the chapters when he assigns them before you start that chapter and you should DEF. do all the online practice tests & exercises since there basically the same questions that are on his tests.

great teacher. yes he does swares alot but his ability to teach a class is more significant than that. lots of board notes, and in order to do well in this class, do the online practice stuff (why torcher yourself?) you will see a significant difference in your test grades if you do. DON'T walk in to his class late on test dates you wont be happy.

Great guy, swears a bit now and then, but gets the points over. Not to good at Golf, but very sociable out of college time. Recommend the guy.

He's a nice guy. He curses a lot, but he's funny. He gives notes, but you'll still wanna read the chapters in order to do well on the tests. I'd take him again.
